We've spent so much time figuring out what's going on in the bath bomb reaction, that we've really dug deep into what's going on there. However, a looming list of related phenomena has us wondering if everything that happens there is similar to what goes on with bath bombs once they enter water.
So we decided to make some elephant's toothpaste. It starts with different ingredients, but it makes some pretty interesting bubbles, too! We wanted to see if the bubbles it makes are similar to the bubbles from the bath bomb reaction, so we decided to test the substance(s) in the elephant's toothpaste. Check out what we did!

We figured out a whole bunch of things from examining a related phenomenon, including the ideas that different gases can be produced from different starting ingredients.
We know they're different gases because they have different properties!
And we know that the mass before the interaction is the same before.
So we are at this place where we've figured out a ton and need to go back to our consensus model. So much figuring out has been done! Way to go 6th grade!
